How much height could I have lost from my very bad posture?

I have very severe postural/spinal issues: moderate scoliosis, marked kyphosis, severe hyperlordosis, 37° APT, rib flare, and a 4–4.5 inch lumbar gap. What’s a realistic range?

How much height can you lose?

I’m wondering how much standing height can be affected by spinal alignment and posture.
I have a combination of moderate scoliosis pronounced thoracic kyphosis, hyperlordosis, anterior pelvic tilt, thoracolumbar kyphosis and rib flare, along with some hypermobility/asymmetry.

I have pronounced thoracic kyphosis and hyperlordosis, along with a very pronounced anterior pelvic tilt, thoracolumbar kyphosis, rib flare, moderate scoliosis. I also have around a 4-inch gap between my lower back and the wall when standing normally.
